    Sorry for going off topic a bit, but there are also people selling Tesco voucher codes that are listed on here, like £5 off a £50 shop etc. Haven't people heard of Google to find this sort of stuff. They've sold loads and have positive feedback in the main too! It's beyond me!

    Has anyone been on a mystery shopping flight to Russia?

    One mystery shopping company I work for does have MS jobs involving overseas flights and the airline does have flights to Russia. But I have yet to see any MS flights to Russia!

    Does anyone know which of the mystery shopping companies do "telephone mystery shops" rather than visits in person? I live in rural area and would love to get in to doing htis.

    I have done some telephone jobs for TNS before. Also try emystery shopper as they do website mystery shops so you wouldn't always need to leave your computer.

    Optimum Contact have an ongoing programme of telephone surveys. You get paid for each survey but you pay your own telephone costs and many of the calls are to mobiles!

    Then you actually have to get to speak to the person and they have to agree to do the survey. Sometimes they will abort part way through or you find that they are not the right person to speak to etc etc.

    I have sometimes spent two hours without a single successful survey. It is also more tiring than you think!!

    I've done phone jobs from Retail Eyes as well. Travel agents, phone shops, new houses etc

    My Gap money has always been in my account on the 24th. Bear in minds its the morning, check again this afternoon, it might come in during the day.

  • I'm doing a pizza delivery job today. Can some one please advise me that it advises me to buy a pizza and a side, if they do a meal deal can I opt for this as long as it is covered? Also it says a pizza with a minimum of two toppings so is that a create your own or can you get one of the pizzas that are already have toppings selected if you know what I mean?

    The brief says you can't use coupons or a meal deal but if there's a medium pizza and side on a meal deal for cheaper than if you bought them individually then it's not really feasible to insist on not using the deal!

    I think you can create your own from anything except pineapple...
